For Self-Storage Owners
Considering a sale? Start with a confidential conversation.

Confidential. No obligation. No public listing required.
We source.
We underwrite.
We position.
We close quietly.
Source
Off-market outreach to Ontario owners, plus listings screened before they reach the open market.
Underwrite
Rent roll, occupancy, unit mix, market rents, expenses and NOI reviewed line by line.
Position
The story presented to the right buyer pool, with the operational upside made legible.
Close
Confidential process, controlled disclosure, quiet execution through to completion.
Operator Experience
Before advising
owners, we were
owners.
Dusko "Duke" Lekic previously owned and operated self-storage facilities in Ontario. That firsthand experience shapes how INVSTY evaluates rent rolls, occupancy, unit mix, market rents, operating expenses, NOI, expansion potential and buyer underwriting.
Self-storage.
The real estate is
only half the story.
Two identical buildings can perform nothing alike. What a facility is worth depends as much on how it is run as on where it sits, so every INVSTY assignment starts with the operating picture.
- Occupancy
- Physical and economic occupancy rarely match.
- Pricing
- Street rate versus in-place rate across the rent roll.
- Unit mix
- Which sizes actually rent in that catchment.
- Market rents
- What competitors nearby are currently achieving.
- Operating expenses
- Staffing, insurance, taxes, snow, software, repairs.
- Management
- On-site, remote or hybrid, and what it costs to change.
- Competition
- Supply within the drive-time, plus announced pipeline.
- Expansion
- Zoning, land, and the cost per square foot to add units.
From one facility
to an entire portfolio.

Looking for something that isn't publicly listed?
INVSTY also represents selected commercial investment and medical-office clients. Commercial representation
A cap rate
doesn't tell
the whole story.
Two facilities can trade at the same capitalization rate and still represent very different investments. INVSTY looks beyond the headline number to understand the income, expenses, occupancy, market position and operational opportunities behind it.
